From the beginning of the Safavid era, trade relations have been the cornerstone of these relations. Until Peter the Great's time in Russia, the importance of Russia's settlement was not for Iranian agents, and most Russians were interested in relations.What effect did the consequences of this conflict have on Iranian modernity? And how and what was the impact of this impact? And where did it have a direct impact?After the war, there were issues that directly affected the quality of relations. The Caucasus route became a way for Iranians to become acquainted with the sparks of modern life and try to achieve something. The Russians became acquainted with European civilization earlier than the Iranians.

Iranian thinkers based in the Caucasus or related to the Caucasus, They were the first to try to get acquainted with Europe and localize European modernist congresses and bring them back to the country. Recognize the ways in which ideas that can be necessary and useful for the development of the country's structures are always necessary by looking at the past.
